Description

Managers in a sample of managers at companies with at least 150 employees took a simple financial literacy quiz and got an average of 38% of the questions right. How is that possible? There are varying reasons, but none of them are good. For those who have had limited exposure, or just a plain aversion to “the numbers”, there is hope for becoming financially intelligent and increasing your credibility by speaking the language of business. This involves knowing the foundation of financials – getting back to basics.

This course offers basic yet essential information needed to improve your financial intelligence, complete with real stories about real companies. We’ll cover the income statement, balance sheet, statement of cash flows, financial ratio classifications, cash vs. profit, and working capital strategies.
